We ordered it for our intimate wedding that evening, we picked it up at 10 AM and put it right in a refrigerator, and cut it at 8 PM. But the cake was somewhat dry and the frosting seemed a bit old.

I was a little disappointed by my experience here. At checkout, the lowest suggested tip option was…read more15% (other than selecting no tip), which struck me as a bit much. I nevertheless tipped $3 on a cup of coffee and a breakfast bagel. I brought my own coffee outside, while the bagel was brought out to me. When I finished eating, I brought my tray, cup, and utensils back inside and up to the counter as a courtesy rather than leaving them outside. Instead of just taking them, the employee told me I needed to carry everything over to another area near the trash cans. Obviously, walking another 10 feet isn't a big deal. What bothered me was that after tipping $3 and then going out of my way to bring everything back inside, the staff essentially couldn't be bothered to take the tray the last few feet themselves. It's a small thing, but it left a disappointing impression about the level of service relative to the tipping expectation.

I haven't made it to Quail & Condor myself yet, but my husband works up in Healdsburg and brings…read morepastries home from there. It's funny how it all came together. I'm a big Holiday Baking Championship fan, and I distinctly remember a Healdsburg baker named Melissa Yanc who won in 2019. I was living in San Francisco when her episode aired, so when we moved to Santa Rosa and my husband mentioned a bakery he frequents in Healdsburg, I hoped it was hers. He couldn't remember the name, but when he pulled it up on his phone's map, it was Quail & Condor! Imagine my delight. I'd wanted to try it for years, and he'd been bringing it home all along. Everything lived up to my expectations. He brought home a chocolate croissant, a cookie, a kouign-amann, and an oatmeal cream pie, and every single thing was delicious. I can't wait to visit in person, but for now, my husband is on pastry duty at least once a week. What a life!

Quail & Condor was recommended by a friend who lives in the area. She mentioned that they had…read morereceived a James Beard Award, which intrigued me, as I'm always up for trying good pastries! We decided to buy a few items to share. First up was the Kouign Amann, a croissant like pastry baked in a mold with a caramelized crust. It was good overall, with a nice flavor and texture. Next, we tried the Morning Bun, which ended up being my favorite! It had a delicious black sesame cream filling and was soft and fluffy. It was a new flavor for me that I really enjoyed. I also ordered a mocha coffee to enjoy alongside the pastries. When we arrived, there was a short line, and the dining area was fairly busy with other patrons. The dining area was noce and open and spacious. They also had a selection of cookbooks to browse through, which was a nice touch. Overall, the pastries were good, and I would definitely return for the Morning Bun. However, I was a bit disappointed with the customer service. The staff member at the register made me feel rushed, and her demeanor came across as unwelcoming. While I enjoyed the pastries, a warmer and more welcoming interaction would have made the experience much better.

I tried one of their BYO sandwiches and took it to the river--they have vegan cheese and vegan tofurkey, which is such a treat.

The people working here are really, really nice, which makes the whole experience even better. Definitely a spot worth checking out if you're in the area and into fresh, healthy eats.

I stopped in for a mocha coffee and an almond croissant to enjoy in the square since the weather was beautiful. The mocha coffee was good but fairly basic. My friend ordered the lavender coffee, which I tried and really enjoyed. It was flavorful, unique, and a nice change from my usual coffee order. The almond croissant was a highlight as it was fresh, flaky, and filled with just the right amount of almond paste. Overall, the shop met my expectations. The location is excellent, and the coffee and pastry made for a pleasant breakfast stop. Service was just okay, but the convenient location and tasty croissant made it a nice place to start the morning.

Their new location at Stewart's Point store is the perfect stop for anyone on a road trip, cyclists or the crowd moto'ing around on their motorcycles, there is plenty of outdoor seating; but also fun to grab and go if you're headed to the beach for a picnic. If you're on a motorcycle, please don't be that person who backs your bike in near the tables; there is plenty of parking in the designated lot.
